Sun Devils Coast to 11-2 Victory
Riding the 2-hit performance of the 19-year old first baseman Ken Varnon, the Arizona State Sun Devils stopped the Texas Longhorns, 11-2. Brad Helmick got the win, improving to 3-0. He held the Longhorns to 2 runs on 5 hits over 6.1 innings, while striking out 5 and walking 5. Arizona State now sports a record of 23-9.

Arizona State won the game in part because of Bryant Kretz. The catcher ripped a grand slam home run in the top of the first inning to put the Sun Devils ahead, 5-0. For the game, Kretz had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"We didn't help ourselves, it's as simple as that," said losing manager Danny Oliver.
